14°. My sister just got to FL a couple days ago, she posted it’s 80° today.

My younger brother now has COVID, he’s not vaccinated. He’s in hospital due to afib with it.
My oldest son has it also, he’s vaccinated and has very mild case.

Listened to some meatloaf tonight, RIP.

Sometime tomorrow need to do brakes on Subaru.

good morning all
no, not much of a good night's sleep. Reclining seat not all the comfortable, neck is not happy at all, but it sure beats driving. Wifi works and it's warm in here. Now if they would have the coffee ready on time. Supposed to be a coffee station in each car but there are no cups. ?
I'm dying here without coffee....

I think I'm around the Florida line, can't tell, still dark out and train tracker doesn't seem to work.
going to try to book a larger room on way home with real bed in it. No clickety clacks but lots of jiggling around. They must have changed engines in the night, some back and forth bumping.

12 degrees at home with high of 27

Can you look at your location on Maps on your cell phone?

Mostly, they were restitching the ear that had surgery earlier this week.

Coffee finished brewing. 9° with clear skies this morning. Heading to 27° with chance of light snow in AM. Got last of my slides scanned. Still have a lot of black and white filt to scan. Not sure I will get it done today. Going to work on cleaning up shop so I can get tractor, mower or Mule inside if I want to work on them when it is cold out. They will fit now. But no room to work on them. Got squirrel baffle in for pole under feeder. Need to get that up today.
Squirrel ready to jump down on feeder.

Randy, you up early or cannot sleep. Hope you are healing from surgery and fall.

Eric, nice picture.

Drew, hope your trip finished without any more delays.

Buckeye, hope son and others get over Covid quickly.

Riptide. I have had good luck with LED lights. While knocking on wood have not lost one yet. Replaced most of them about 4 years ago. I did buy spares that are still on the shelf collecting dust.

Everyone stay well and safe.

Good Morning All.

-16° right now (coldest so far)...high about 20 today...
Maybe make a dump run today...only a couple bags, so probably not.
I do need to add air to two tires on my truck. I've been losing pressure on the two right tires for a while now. Since this was happening before the snow tires were put on, I'm thinking there's a leak in the tire pressure monitoring rather than the tires themselves
I'll add pressure (after checking with a pressure gage) sometime when it warms up.
Aften that, no plans...probably a couple movies or something

well Roy while you are freezing in the deep freeze, I had to turn on the ceiling fan as it was a little warm here....happily in DelRay Beach after 31 hour train ride. I slept like a rock last night but am still tired.

we have a full day planned, my friend's son has the Coastal Boating website and takes videos of boats going in and out local inlets. So might be watching boats for an hour or two today, not hard duty.

coffee pot dinged. I know the coffee will be good, these folks own a coffee company

 

[wngsprd]

-9 going to 33F. Okay, I cheated on the temp trying to make Roy feel better. it's in Celsius...it's actually 16F now.

Stayed below freezing yesterday almost all day. Didn't get much done outside, but did disassemble the roaster and gave it a good cleaning...Got TurboTax Business loaded, updated and started.

Good morning! -6 now, supposed to get to 27 later today. Maybe some snow tomorrow.

Finishing 2nd cup of coffee. Up early, didn’t sleep very well. Gas went off during the night, wife got an after hours service call that wasn’t for her store. Ended up getting out of bed around 4, just as the furnace came on, the well must have cycled. So furnace is working now. Got the wood burner going strong now.

Just puttered yesterday. Made chili and corn bread for supper. Was tasty.

Not sure what I will do today, I do know a nap is on the agenda.

Everyone stay safe out there!
